Today is my Mum's birthday and as part of her present I made her a 24 page children's book (that rhymed). This seemed like an amazing idea at the start but was actually a bit of a huge undertaking (24 pages...silly me!). Anyway she seems pretty happy with it so I thought I'd share a couple of the illustrations. Its about my Mum and her sister when they were young.
Oh and this is the very last page...its my family!

Lizzy I love this , what a lovely daughter you are X
Was the rhyming part hard? My sister used to own (and probably still owns) a rhyming dictionary that she took around with her everywhere she went. In case she wanted to rhyme something, I guess.
That was a really lovely and thoughtful thing to do for your mum. You are really talented, the illustrations are amazing.

I am constantly being asked if I do Children's Books and haven't yet, because I KNOW what a huge job it is. But YOU have done it! Congratulations and how lovely it looks!
I love to give careful consideration to the books that I buy for little ones, it must feel amazing to know that you have created such a wonderous gift. Happy to your mum and hope you can now sit back and relax!

Your mum is a lucky one. A work of art and generous gift...
